squirrelarmy Posted May 9, 2017 Report Share Posted May 9, 2017 I'm "working" from home today. Got the glastocam up on my spare monitor. Does it auto refresh or will I have to manually do it. I know it's not a live video image that you can watch people walk around Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice bit of code, you wouldn't happen to know if there's anyway of getting it as a webpage image on a desktop background which updates itself?

I have done this, but it was a slight pain in the arse. I am using the application, SeqDownload v1.26 (Automatically download images from the Web, and create animation from them), to run in the back ground and auto download the image every 20 seconds The application is set to keep saving the image to the same 2 file names, "recent_full1.jpg" and "recent_full2.jpg" in the folder: C:\Glasto webcam. Every time it saves the file, it overwrites the oldest image. This downloads the images, but they are very widescreen so dont display on my laptop screen desktop well! So I installed the program, https://www.imagemagick.org/script/index.php This can edit and crop images from command line (DOS window). So I wrote the commands into a batch file and have the task scheduler call the batch file every 5 mins. What this does it takes the original files Eg "recent_full1.jpg", and re seizes it and creates a new file "1.jpg" "cd C:\Glasto webcam magick recent_full1.jpg -crop 3640x2048+900+0 -resize 1920x1080 1.jpg magick recent_full2.jpg -crop 3640x2048+900+0 -resize 1920x1080 2.jpg" This will create 2 new images, which are then cropped around the pyramid stage. The "3640x2048+900+0" sets the Crop mask. 3640 wide, 2048 high. The 900 means the mask starts 900 pixles to the right from the TOP LEFT of the image. The 0 means, the mask starts 0 pixles down from the TOP LEFT of the image. I then select both images (1.jpg and 2.jpg) to act as a slideshow as my desktop background. One issue I have is that every time the batch file is called, a command line window opens, runs and closes. Which is a pain! Enjoy.

Harmonic Prospector Posted May 9, 2017 Report Share Posted May 9, 2017 Staying in Pilton this weekend for a wedding nearby and fancied taking a stroll down to the farm to blow away the cobwebs on Sunday morning. We are walking distance from Worthy so wouldn't be taking the car but I would imagine that this weekend may well be the last before they close access to the general public, at least I hope it is. Do I need to contact the office to say we were thinking of walking down to have quick look or are we free to enter as long we stick to footpaths, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do I need to contact the office to say we were thinking of walking down to have quick look or are we free to enter as long we stick to footpaths, etc. I was debating visiting today actually as I had a meeting fairly close (within 30 miles - I was willing to be diverted!) to the site. So I emailed the office yesterday to check if ok to visit. They emailed back pretty quick, and said that they are asking people not to visit the site now, however if you are in the area then stick to the surrounding public footpaths. I've not been before out of festival time and when I do go I would like to have as much freedom as possible to wander the fields, therefore as I was having to travel a bit out of my way I decided against it. However if you're staying in the area I'm sure you could wander down just to check things out. If it's a weekend there's likely to be less going on as well.
